I never met LCM either.
Lots of people here did, though.
And not only met him but knew him and worked with him.
They say he was abusive, arrogant and prone to sexual predation.
I value their opinions.
As for the rapes, there are people right here on GSC who could and have given first hand accounts.
And it always seems to somehow come back to victim blaming instead of outrage over the atrocious behavior of these men who claimed to be God's representatives. Kinda like a magic trick. Take the focus off the reality and direct it to the deception.
I don't think there is really any doubt that VPW did, in fact, commit the heinous acts that have been related.
Why didn't the victims press charges? Only they can say. It's really none of our business. It doesn't change what happened or make it go away. It's not their fault they were raped by a man they should have been able to trust.
And then, VPW groomed LCM to walk in his footsteps. But the shoes didn't fit correctly and he stumbled and fell in his clumsiness. Your ABS and mine helped to fund a deal that was intended to make it all disappear, vanish into thin air so the poor saps who funded TWI would be none the wiser. And maybe if enough people could be hushed, there would be some who never have to find out the ugly truth about what a corrupt and dark organization TWI really was and is.
I hope that never happens.
